The third and final part in our series reflecting upon the commodification of the "self" under capitalism.

Shows like Squid Games explore the ways that our society nurtures the worst aspects of the human experience. Under capitalism, we are urged to constantly push and judge ourselves, choosing the hustle over and against compassion. Many of us are overworked, taking risks, and choosing success over the needs of our spirits so that we can "win" in our toxic system.
